Letter to the Editor: Dream on - part three

I appreciated Mr. Conover's response to my letter published July 17 ("Dream On"). He actually answered his own question about why wages of the working class have been "shrinking ever since Reagan." That's because Ronald Reagan was the last president to embrace three basic principles: Smaller government. Lower taxes. Personal responsibility. (Sound familiar?)

Thank you for your military service, Tim. I also am a patriot who served in the Army (Korea). But I do not belong to the NRA, never joined a union, and do not belong to "a political party run by religious extremists and the NRA." That's because I don't belong to any political party and have no use for organized religion. Both are compromised by inherently flawed human beings.

If you and I sat down and talked, I bet we'd find we have more in common than not. This is true for many people with differing political philosophies. The fly in the ointment is not ideologies but politics, the world's second oldest profession - closely related to the first.

I'm in the book, Tim. Look me up. We'll have a cup of tea together.
